How to make your own

You don’t have to find 20 things for your list. Maybe you choose one, maybe you pick out 5. You choose, it’s your personalised gift. If you would like to get a bit fancy I recommend using the free version of Canva (https://www.canva.com) to design your vouchers.
I encourage you to stop, focus and notice what your child likes to do.
  • Where is their favourite playground?
  • Where do they like to ride their bike, scooter or skateboard?
  • What do they like to eat?
  • Where do they like to eat?
  • What activities do they like to do?

It’s the simple things that matter the most

Before you go looking for presents costing hundreds of dollars I want to share my daughter’s favourite experiences. She loves riding the tram and having lunch at a shopping centre food court. It really is the simplest things that bring the most joy!
